I just came across a YouTube channel that claims to be L Craig Martindale and he says in it that it’s 2023, and talks about Wierwille and “the truth” about the crucifixion not being on Friday. Are you guys aware he’s resurfaced?
saw it. I’m flabbergasted and disappointed that he thinks he’s relevant and allowed to put “reverend” in hi name.

It is with great sadness that we share that our dear friend and pastor, Wayne Clapp, is sleeping with Jesus, awaiting His return. At the families' request, we will have a celebration of life service at a later date. This information will be shared on the www.cffm.org (http://www.cffm.org/) website as well
****The celebration of life service is scheduled at CFFM on Saturday, **December 9th at 3pm. There will be family visitation from 2-3pm prior to the service.***
The service will be available to livestream on our website - www.cffm.org (http://www.cffm.org/) for those unable to attend.

Not quiet on my Way front. Every month Undertow is sold somewhere in the world according to sales reports I get from my book printer/distributor IngramSpark. And messages from readers continue to amaze me, especially from people from my daughter's generation. Some as young as 35.
Anyway, you'd be surprised how and where word has spread about the cult called The Way International.
Keep sharing your story, fellow Greasespotters. Word gets around.
BTW, The International Cultic Studies Association sells Undertow in their bookstore.
Charlene I will take a look. She says that numbers post covid are growing in The Way. I disagree. They have been getting lower and yes with folks locked down and needing a life raft may have up-ticked the numbers a bit, but I see stagnation and repetition. Information online easily obtained to discourage new recruits. Have you seen or heard any verifiable numbers? Thanks!

Ok anyone listen? thoughts?

Bliss, I think I might be going off-track, with this question, but you mentioned Donna M. If RR has left, or been outed, did she take Donna with her? I think Donna is long past retirement age,IIRC. I know RR, is 80(?), but but I would like to know what has happened to Donna. Perhaps someone knows, and can post an answer.
Donna is CEO. Someone can clarify. But she hasn’t left nor giving up any power. She’s large and in charge.

Welcome!! Keep browsing here. That’s how I got my family out. He was brought up from birth in TWI so old habits die hard. Just realize that you escaped the cult and now you can find what you like / love/ want without the pressure of having to put “the Ministry first”! Oh I know they say Gawd First but the ministry = God =ministry and all that.
take it one day at a time. You’re in the right place - keep searching for peace!-

So let me get this straight.... my mother in law (who is still IN) gave her life the The Way as Corps. When her husband left because he was going to rat out Craig- she gets kicked off staff - without a retirement. But Donna stays for 20 years and is now CEO? How is this not seen as blatant disgusting double standard behavior? Oh I know... it’s par for the Way course! Ugh!!

Hey! I lived in Colorado during that time. Pretty sure I know who you are and who you are taking about. I’m just confused as what custody are you talking about? You personally and siblings? We can private chat.
Sorry- it’s been while. Lol.

y’all are totally entertaining. LoL

Gonna have to settle for a public fb link on this one. Please don’t make comments on his post on fb.

You mean Rozilla actually let them have a live drum kit on stage rather than a few electronic drums turned down to 3 and a shaker? Amazing.
72 ROA with the hair and the open shirts?
No? A more tamed down version of this on stage at the VPW WOW auditorium? With suits and dance numbers? A modern High Country Caravan yet suitable for someone in their late 70s?
And a Way Publications department to come up with the phrase "literally reenergized"?
The latter seems more believable.
Wouldn’t know since NO CAMERAS were allowed in the auditorium. No no. Even some innies were mad that they didn’t live stream. Even to Gunnison. Go figure. I’m going to post the review one did after I find it again of the service.

Yes appreciate you Charlene!

Sorry for the post and hide guys. Not intentional - just forgetful (old age).
T-bone as for retention.. since I still have family “IN” all I can say is it’s generational retention at the core. Kids, grandkids of long standing Wayfers that have strong family love stay in and make it work. Then try to run classes with stragglers who need to fit in somewhere.
Those (like myself) with family still in and have left but still have a relationship -because the love is still there and the religion we choose is ignored. We avoid the topic at this point but still love and respect one another.
They keep their excitement by rehashing PFAL and repackaging it. They are still waiting for another MOG to rise up and lead. And complain about it.
They just had their 75th anniversary. And the nostalgia that those in attendance experienced with the (most)original way prod cast and songs (even Bob Stanley) sent people over the edge in an emotional glory days high. They were literally reenergized by the songs and the “quality” of the production that took hem back 25 years and were now recharged to promote The Way again.
Sigh.

I have some friend innies that drive me crazy with their pushing the class at all kinds of venues. Every Faith convention, online business fb page, local farmers markets. Full displays of books and happy pictures of grads after the class. I could go on...
i just find it mind boggling that in this day and age of the internet there are still people who jump at this. But, if you feel love bombed and a sense of community that you’ve been missing, I can see the appeal.

HOLY SHMOLY! I leave for a few months and all THIS!
So sorry Dana. My heart aches for you! All too familiar this modus operendi! Many cults today are still doing these same exact things to their followers and it makes me want to PUNCH SOMETHING!
As my Father in Law Corps and Staffer said:

Somebody explain to me how anyone would give him a platform let alone feel qualified to use the “reverend” title! All he’s doing is regurgitating his books teachings and using Weirwille stories. He turned 75 in Nov. Remnant Grace. He needs grace for sure to get more than 500 youtube subs. It looks like he’s using (duped)a group from another country - most watched views come from the French translation. Listening at your own risk- it gave me some bad memories.
